Remove verification function which is cryptographically weak #28

Description

@rkeene

The following code updates an introduced a weakness in the verification of certificate signatures. There are no cases where we do not know the curve being used when validating a signature, but this function works around a hypothetical case by trying multiple signature verifications and returning success if any of them pass.

Any usage of this function would also be a bug.
